Abstract
Harold Pinter, the outstanding twentieth century English playwright has made a genuine contribution in the field of dramatic literature through his oeuvre and distinctive peculiar style that contributed much in revealing the existential problems of mankind. Pinter is one of the few writers to have an eponymous adjective-‘Pinteresque’ named for him. This paper attempts to trace the various contours of the term and tries to analyse its semeiology with special focus on his well-known playThe Birthday Party. Although the play is written in the early stage of his writing career when the innovative dramatic methods were still experimented, this play, as one of Pinter’s classical works, has exhibited overt characteristics of what the critics term as ‘Pinteresque.’
